Error 1001

When downloading an update for badgemaker it might come up with the following error.

This seems to be a windows problem rather than BadgeMaker. A quick google search on the error code reveals that it is quite a common occurrence when a previous installation is damaged. Microsoft has its own fix for this here.
If that does not solve the issue there is a further list of possible solutions here:
